Recently, the master blaster Sachin Tendulkar was in the news because he donated his entire salary and allowances to the Prime Minister’s Relief Fund. If reports are to be believed, Tendulkar has drawn nearly Rs 9 million (Rs 90 lakh) in salaries and other monthly allowances in the past six years.

In a star-studded career, he had seen him become the first batsman to cross the 200-run mark in the ODI format, Tendulkar managed to win the 2011 ICC World Cup in his hometown of Mumbai at the Wankhede stadium. In a short IPL career, Tendulkar played 78 games and scored 2,334 runs and had one hundred and 13 fifties to his name.

Sachin old friend Vinod Kambli also tweeted the viral video with a caption, 'Master Blaster good to see you enjoying like old times'
